Swasti - Everyday Wellbeing for Margianlised Communities

What
we do

Health inequity affects vulnerable communities disparately across the World. Its persistent nature makes it the world’s most challenging development problem. We believe that people must be at the centre of health systems for them to work effectively. A critical insight that drives us is the understanding that lack of healthcare is ‘Violence and Injustice’ affecting the poor.

We are driven by uncompromising compassion and dream of adding 100 million healthy days to the lives of the most marginalised by 2030.

SYSTEMIC APPROACH

We have a systemic; and integrated approach which goes beyond fighting ill-health, and extends to delivering ‘Everyday Wellbeing’ to our communities.

COMMUNITY CHAMPIONS

We ensure that every solution goes and grows through the community with a focus on prevention.

ECOSYSTEM ENGINEERS

While working closely with partners, we focus on the intersections where different task and processes meet, to ensure a thriving ecosystem.

SITUATIONAL AXIS

We align with the on-ground and contextual realities, as an axis to work along and deliver solutions for our communities.

Our agenda is to change the way wellbeing pathways are achieved, starting with primary healthcare and tackling social determinants that direct how we experience everyday wellbeing. Our glocal multi-disciplinary team co-designs demonstrable and scalable solution models,-in partnership with communities on-ground influencing policies nationally and internationally.

Our initiatives help communities, governments and partners to shape safer, more secure, healthier and prosperous lives across the world. We understand that challenges to wellbeing are not just limited to health; but are also affected by personal, social, economic and environmental factors. These factors invariably determine the health outcomes of people and communities. Hence, our models address the -relationships between these factors, employ a multitude of approaches, focus on outcomes and scale with quality.

Our comprehensive, four-pronged delivery approach promotes health outcomes for marginalised communities. We excel at (1) Demonstrating scalable, cost-effective and sustainable models in partnership with communities (2) Supporting partners to create sustainable impact and (3) Transforming learnings from research into evidence, and action, thereby influencing paradigm shifts in systems, and perceptions around well-being.

Our work loops policy and practice at sub-national, national, regional and international levels, partnering with impact organisations, bilateral, multilateral, government bodies, foundations, academic, and corporate bodies.

Some of the countries that we have worked in are India, Nepal, Cambodia, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Ethiopia, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Maldives, Myanmar, China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Lao PDR, Thailand, Timor Leste, Vietnam, Philippines, Jordan, Kenya, Nigeria, Papua New Guinea, South Africa, Zanzibar, and Eswatini (former Swaziland)
